Threat and EU population status

IUCN Red List status of threatened species

EU population status

The status of the population at the EU level was evaluated at the species level;
this was based on the reports delivered by Member States under Article 12 of the
Birds Directive (see fact sheet below). The EU status assessment can cover several
subspecies/subspecific population units. For more information, please consult the
species fact sheet and link below.
